SERVICE BEAT SOUTH

CHINA

Fielding no less than five reserves, South China were well beaten by

the

Combined Services in the charity match played on the Hong Kong Football Club ground. Play was not up to the standard of ex hibition matches, and the Chinese were slow in taking up opportu nities mainly due to the fact that their forwards did not combine well. The Services also were weak in this respect, and had the Chinese field. ed their usual first eleven, the re- sult might have been different. Despite the poor opposition offered, the Services did not score in the second half, but the weak Chinese forwards did u lot of fruitless at tacking. Mullane, Shirras and Baldry played well for the Services, while for the Chinese, Tam Kong Pak at left back was outstanding, and

was mainly responsible in frustrating most of the dangerous attempts made by the Services for- Wards,***

General Chi King Taug, of Cun ton, kicked off, and the game start od with the Chinese attacking They failed to take their opportu- nities and the Services defence was steady. However, they managed to keep the ball in the Services goul- mouth for about fifteen minutes be-

game, the Services were awarded a penalty for budging, but Hocquard, who took the spot kick shot straight into the goalkeeper's hands. In the closing stages, the Chinese tried hard to reduce the deficit and came very near to succcus on severaL occasions, but once again their opportunities went astray owing to their lack of mutual understanding.

The teams :-

Combined Services: Pte. Heath (Lincolns); L/Cpl. Mullano (Bor- derers) and Cpl. Ash (Lincolns); Martin, Sto. Shirras (Herthes) and Podmore (Borderers); Baldry (Lan- coins); Tel. Hudspith, A.E. Pur- kins: Ridley (Lincolns) and Lt. Hocquard (Lincolns).

CHRISTCHURCH, March 28. ENTERPRISING cricket by G. L.

Woir and JL Kerr added runs for Now Zealand's third wicket, and as a result the home team are now 407 runs in arrear with 7 wickets in hand.

Weir, who looked set for three figures, had the misfortune to be caught in failing light after scor ing 66 in 148 minutes. Play for the day was abandoned at the fall o his wicket.

A crowd of 15,000 witnessed the resumption of play after the lan- cheon interval. Only 19 runs had been added, however, before Demps- ter, New Zealand's best batsinan, was caught off one of Allen's ex preases. 25-1—8:

Scoring was on the slow side and play lacked incident during the Whitelaw-Weir partnership. By dogged batting the pair added 34 runs before Verity tempted White- law to opon his shoulders to be caught by Brown, 50-2-30.

TWO CENTURIES SCORED IN FRIENDLIES

There was a very large attendance of cricketers at the Kowloon 0.0, when the Peninsula side wore at home to the Indian Re- creation Club in the last firsť division fixture of the KOAJON,

Interest in the match was due to the fact that the Indians,

if they were to retain the shield for the year, would have to take full points, A draw would have been of no value to them.

Kowloon 0.0. batted first and thanks to a good second wicket stand by the Fincher brothers, put up a total of 125 runs. The Indiana reply was 102 and they thus lost the match and the shield, the new Champion, being the "University,

This match was played on the Club ground and ended in a win for the Chinese by one goal to nil The game was fast and full of thrills, but the Chinese should have scored more than one goal as they had numerous opportunities. As a matter of fact in no game this season have so many chances been missed. It must be said also that their poor shooting was main- ly due to the absence of Fung King Cheung, their sharpshooter, While another of their regular for wards, Tam Kong Pak played in the defence instead of at his usual position, right-inside.
